Dear Neighbors,
We received a note this morning announcing that the applicants for the proposed beer garden on 9th Street had withdrawn their request for a liquor license and were walking away from the project. The protest hearing before ABRA scheduled for tomorrow has therefore been cancelled.
As I’ve noted in my prior emails, those of us who protested the application have been, and continue to be, supportive of the redevelopment of 9th Street as a commercial and restaurant destination for a diverse clientele. Throughout the conversation, and again after the notice, we made it clear to the applicants that our opposition was about this site and this use – not them - and that we’d welcome their opening the right operation in the right building in our part of Shaw. I personally will continue to support them at Etto and hope that we see them here in Shaw in the future.
Many people supported us in this effort, we can’t thank them enough!
Please let me know if you have any questions, and stay tuned in all of our continuing effort to support the revitalization of 9th Street.
Best,
Paul Harrison
